>Description: During installation it is impossible to run the myqsl_install_db script. It just keeps hanging after execution. It prepares the priviledge-tables fine, but when it tries to open the mysql-server for installing them it hangs, just after the "Installing tables" prompt. I have tried to add --log to create a log, but the log is empty, only stating that the server has started. If I then try to access using either the mysqladmin o rmysql tool, I am not allowed in. I am using the binaries from the mysql-website, so I figured there was nothing wrong with them at least. Because of the known problems with gcc 2.96, I chose to use the binaries. There are really no error-messages given it just hangs. If I try to manually start the db afterwards it claims that it starts (and does exist in the process-list), the socket is also set up, although in the wrong place. Fixed the socket with a symlink, but it still just hangs after I have entered the password.
